| School: |
Syracuse University
|
| Description: |
Whether you are watching the television, reading a newspaper or book, talking to a co-worker, or attending a class, usually some person or institution is trying to influence your beliefs, attitudes, or actions. Students will understand the critical skills needed in making decisions about what to believe and what to do, so that we may have more control over how we respond; and discuss general standards for acquiring or changing belief, by means of exploring the nature of justification and/or giving reasons. This class will answer: How are beliefs justified? How is language manipulated to influence beliefs? How can we use logical tools to strengthen our critical faculties? |
